White Coat ceremony slated for this Friday at Pittsburg State University

A White Coat ceremony is slated for 12:30 p.m. – 1:30 p.m. this Friday, Sept. 8 at the Bicknell Family Center for the Arts at Pittsburg State University.

Approximately 90 students, including juniors as well as RN to BSN, MSN, and DNP, will receive their white coats, marking a milestone in their path to becoming a nurse. 

In 2016, a national grant helped Pitt State adopt the practice commonly conducted by medical schools. 

Students will take an oath in front of family, university leaders, and peers.
